Then you&#39;d have to construct some clever kind of marshaling system that can serialize a Python object on the outside into a stored procedure call, which calls into a SQLAlchemy-enabled/PG-embedded system. I&#39;ve no idea how feasible this would be, but it would allow a fully stored-procedure approach, without the need to actually hand-code two individual persistence layers (i.e. INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE statements on the DB side, type-specific object-&gt;procedure marshaling on the app side), which is typically why the SP approach is entirely not worth it.mike bayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01417862951114999907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541296000399974369.post-3455497893094905502011-12-05T19:09:10.779-05:002011-12-05T19:09:10.779-05:00Great news.
